The definitive, chronological, and up-to-date guide and trade reading-order on collecting Daredevil comic books via omnibuses, hardcovers, and trade paperback graphic novels. A part of Crushing Krisis’s Crushing Comics. Last updated August 2024 with titles scheduled for release through May 2025.
The debut of Daredevil in 1964 from Stan Lee and Bill Everett took the Marvel method of superheroes to a whole new level. Everett was the creator of one of Marvel’s first heroes – Namor, The Sub-Mariner!
For the past few years, Lee had created an indelible series of flawed, human heroes whose powers doubled as afflictions. The Fantastic Four, Spider-Man, The X-Men – these characters were compelled to be heroes by the curse of their abilities, and they were all as interesting out of costume as in.
Daredevil took the “power as a burden” metaphor to a new level, with Matt Murdock’s origin story granting him enhanced senses but leaving him without the power of sight. The burden of Daredevil’s powers was an actual physical handicap that altered his life as a child for years before he ever donned a costume to avenge his father’s death!
Lee was initially concerned that the idea of his new hero might be offensive to blind people, but was overwhelmed by the positive response from charities working with the blind! See The Men Without Fear documentary for more detail.

The Daredevil Bookshelf
Daredevil Omnibus Editions
These massive tomes have larger pages and collect huge swaths of comics – between 25 and 50 issues a book. They look beautiful on a book-shelf!
Omnibus editions are also listed below in their chronological placement, as they are frequently the only coverage of a specific run. Other omnibuses not primarily centered on this material are also listed in this guide chronologically.
Click to expand a list of Omnibus volumesMarvel Masterworks
Marvel Masterworks editions are high quality, full color reproductions of original issues. The volumes were originally released as hardcovers, with many now out of print. Some of the earlier editions were also released in paperback. If you decide to buy hardcovers, the newest editions are from 2003 and, with silver dustjackets.
Masterworks are not listed below in their chronological placement, but they are referenced if they are the only means of obtaining an issue.
Click to expand a list of Masterworks volumesMighty Marvel Masterworks
Mighty Marvel Masterworks are digest-sized collections of sequential Silver and Bronze Age material. They do not always line up with the volume breaks in the original Masterworks volumes. This is a separate reprint line with a similar name.
#1-11: Mighty Marvel Masterworks, Vol. 1: While the City Sleeps (2022 digest-size paperback, ISBN 978-1302934408 / digital)
#12-21: Mighty Marvel Masterworks, Vol. 2: Alone Against the Underworld (2023 digest-size paperback, ISBN 978-1302948917 / digital)
#22-32: Mighty Marvel Masterworks, Vol. 3: Unmasked (2024 digest-size paperback, ISBN 978-1302954284 / digital)
It’s possible this will also collect Annual 1, though that was not included in the solicit.
Daredevil Epic Collections
Marvel’s Epic Collections represent a consistent, affordable, full-color bookshelf format of issues in perfect continuity order without a single gap. The catch? Marvel is releasing them in a random order to focus on the biggest gaps first – since early issues are already well-covered by both Essentials and Masterworks.
Epic editions are also listed below in their chronological placement, as they are frequently the only coverage of a specific run.
Click to expand a list of Epic Collection volumesEssential Daredevil
Marvel’s Essentials line packs tons of comics into each black and white, phone-book-sized edition with newsprint paper. If you don’t care about color and glossy paper, this is the best way to acquire your favorite classic stories quickly.
Essential Editions are not repeated below in their chronological placement, since B&W is not the original format of this series.

Daredevil by Frank Miller & Denny O’Neil (1979 – 1986)
Frank Miller’s run on Daredevil was effectively a “reboot” in the terms we use to describe comics today. In his run he methodically deconstructed Daredevil’s origins, replacing his rogues gallery and redefining his supporting players. He turned Daredevil from another Marvel do-gooder to an urban vigilante fighting for both his city and his life in a bloody, adult run.
This is one of the most highly-collected creator runs in Marvel history. However, no run of TPBs collect it as succinctly as this grouping of Omnibuses. Even the ostensibly same “Daredevil by Miller & Janson” line, below, does not exactly duplicate the contents of the two main Daredevil Omnibus volumes – they omit the Man Without Fear mini and #226-233

By the middle of the run, Bendis was on his way to becoming Marvel’s prohibitive star writer as he also took over Avengers with his infamous Disassembled arc.

Daredevil by Ed Brubaker (2006 – 2009)
Ed Brubaker came to Marvel hot off the success of his Catwoman, Gotham Central, and his own Sleeper for DC and immediately relaunched Captain America into his Winter Soldier period with great acclaim.
Brubaker’s noirish tendencies made him the perfect successor to Brian Bendis’s run on the title, which left Matt Murdock in the seemingly dead-end setting of Riker’s Island prison. His run on Daredevil is terse, briskly-moving, and occasionally serpentine in its approach to Matt Murdock’s battle with both his enemies and his infamy.

Daredevil (2011) & (2014) – Mark Waid’s Man Without Fear (2011 – 2015)
By 2011 Daredevil had been put through the wringer for a decade with no sign of lighthearted superhero adventures in sight. Comic superstar Mark Waid took over the title with the idea that Daredevil had reached so many unimaginable lows over the past 13 years of comics that the only direction he could go was up.
That didn’t mean Daredevil would have it easy – far from it! – but this series refocused on a smiling, can-do Matt Murdock as he re-found the joy in his double life.

Man Without Fear (2019) #1-5 by Jed MacKay
This series was an interstitial filler between the end of Soule’s volume and the beginning of Zdarsky’s. It’s less plot-driven and more an internal examination of the state of Matt Murdock.

Greg Gillum says
Hello – what an amazing job! I did notice that you are a little behind on Daredevil – I collect DD and Dr Strange – if I can help keep these up to date for you I would be glad to – just let me know.
krisis says
Thanks for the very kind offer to pitch in, Greg! Updating these older single-hero guides that stretch back to the Silver Age can be a real chore, not only because of the longevity of the characters but because of the complexity of the formatting. I’m trying to tackle one or two a month, probably leaving Cap and Spidey until last because they are terrifyingly complex. Check out the recently-revised Iron Man guide to see the formatting I’m moving toward.
Jon L says
I’d suggest looking at maintaining a proper database, rather than trying to maintain in text/html.
Then you can create all sorts of associations across different artists, authors, eras, books, etc, and have a unified way to output that information to the page.
If you create such a database, you could add description attributes to each era, book, w/e, to get something along the lines of the format you have above.
krisis says
I love databases and work with them professionally. However, CK has always been meant to be hand-curated guides that insert human logic where something like our long-lost CBDB would be missing important context. (That said, in the background the comic guide content is driven by a ton of databases.)
Jamie B says
#1-15 & 1/2: Marvel Knights By Joe Quesada Omnibus has a typo and says Narvel instead of Marvel
krisis says
Fixed this, thanks!
Jamie B says
The appearances in Black Widow: The Itsy-Bitsy Spider appear twice in different places with different volume numbers listed during the 1998-2001 section
krisis says
I believe I have this right. He appears in both Black Widow 1999 and 2001, which are both collected in that volume. However, I can make it clearer in the guide.
Jamie B says
#16-19: Vol. 3: Wake Up takes place almost entirely parallel to some of the events of volume 2 (like the Kingpin trial) so personally I would place them together
Jamie B says
Daredevil appears in the first issue of marvel knights double shot and the kingpin appears to not be blind meaning it would be before the Echo -Parts of a Hole story or after issue 46, he also appears in the fourth issue but not the second or third
Jamie B says
Daredevil redemption is primarily set seven years before the time of volume 12 decalogue except for the last issue which is almost entirely set in the present of that time so it’s most likely good where it is now
krisis says
I know this is an old comment, but can you explain “set seven years before the time of volume 12 decalogue.” Which issues are in the volume 12 decalogue?
Jamie B says
Missing the limited alternate timeline Daredevil: Noir as well as the shi crossover and the two batman crossovers
Jamie B says
Daredevil appears in all 3 issues of the 1998 Nighthawk limited series
krisis says
I don’t have that series (rare, I know!), but it seems like it fits in the post-#380 pre-1998 gap. Do you agree?
JB says
The Daredevil in Shadowland by Andy Diggle (2009 – 2011) section has Dark Reign listed after Siege, when it actually occurs before it.
krisis says
Good catch, thanks!
JB says
Daredevil / Captain America: Dead on Arrival one-shot (2008) occurs prior to Civil War, and Secret War as Tony and Steve are both on the Avengers together and Nick Fury is still working for S.H.I.E.L.D.
krisis says
Thanks, I don’t know how I got this so wrong (maybe mistook it for an earlier OGN), but it turns out I have it in the Marvel Europe trade!
JB says
Missing Daredevil: Cage Match from 2010 which is collected in New Avengers: Luke Cage, and set in the early days of both Cage and Daredevil.
krisis says
Added a link to the Luke Cage guide for this, since it’s collected with his material rather than Daredevil (thus far).
Jamie B says
Missing the Magdalena/Daredevil crossover
krisis says
I don’t typically track out-of-continuity comics in every guide, but thanks for giving me this note in case I add a section ;)
JB says
Missing Daredevil: Black & White from 2010
krisis says
Thanks, I didn’t even know this one existed! It doesn’t look like it has been collected at all.
Jamie B says
Under ‘Daredevil (2011) & (2014)’ the ‘Mark Waid [& Chris Samnee] Omnibus, Vol. 1’ is listed as containing ‘Daredevil (20110’ instead of ‘Daredevil (2011)’.
Daredevil doesn’t seem to appear in Spider-Island, but it’s mentioned as happening prior to ‘Daredevil (2011)’ #3 if you wanted to include that.
Jamie B says
You also have ‘Daredevil: Dark Nights’ listed as ‘Daredevil: Dark Knights’
krisis says
Always happy to know you are still reading, Jamie! And, nice for these to just be typos and not continuity errors 😂
Jamie B says
It’s been a few years since I’ve touched anything Marvel but I’m back on my bs and continuing on from where I left off post Fear Itself.
Jamie B says
‘Marvel Knights By Joe Quesada Omnibus’ is listed under issues #51-55 of the 2001 run but it actually collects; ‘Daredevil (1998) 1-15, 1/2; Daredevil: Father 1-6; Marvel Authentix: Daredevil 1; material from Marvel Knights Double-Shot 1’
krisis says
Removed this stray listing, thanks.
Jamie B says
Missing ‘Marvel Knights (2002)’ by Figueroa and Ponticelli which doesn’t seem to have been collected anywhere.
krisis says
This is already noted on the page as “Volume 2”
Jamie B says
Issues #6-7 of Daredevil (2014) are Original Sin tie-in issues.
Jamie B says
At some point shortly before the start of the 2014 series, Daredevil appears in ‘Amazing Spider-Man: Who Am I?’
Jamie B says
Avengers A.I. #7 states that Daredevil #14-15 happened recently for Matt.
